Please tell us which country and city you'd like to see the weather in.

Dhaka is the capital city of Bangladesh. With an estimated 15.5 million people living in greater Dhaka, it is also the tenth largest city in the world.
In December 2014, I spent several days in this city, and was at times overwhelmed by the sights and sounds of the place. Gladly, the people I met along the way were usually incredibly friendly and helpful.
In this video, there are shots of the Buriganga river that meanders through the city, clips from the streets, people at work, a shipyard, one of the busy bazaars, the Baital Mukarram mosque during Friday prayer, and Ramna Park where Dhaka's youth come to play cricket.

The egg debacle in Dhaka | ডিম নিয়ে তুলকালাম
Thousands of people throng the Egg Fair venue in Dhaka’s Khamarbari area to buy eggs but have to return empty handed after chaos and anarchy ensue there. Ultimately the fair is called off.

Everest and the Himalayas. It may not seem like this mountain range could shape a Megacity almost 600 kilometers away, but it does.
This place, the capital of the most densely populated major country in the world, is also the fastest growing city on the planet.
This is an examination of Dhaka, Bangladesh.
The constant supply of melting snow and water that flows down the Himalayas to the south creates the largest delta in the world.
Much of it runs through Bangladesh, an agricultural paradise with some of the richest soil on the planet.
But all that water is also a curse. With more than 700 rivers flowing into the Bay of Bengal, many of the country’s residents become displaced when monsoon season arrives in mid June every year. Annual rainfall in Bangladesh is over 78 inches, and two-thirds of the country’s 64 districts experience regular flooding.
Combine that with the highest population density of any major country, and you understand why Dhaka is adding more than 400,000 residents a year. If even a little of Bangladesh’s precious land is overtaken by water, many of its people instantly become homeless. To top that off, when fields and villages flood, these already struggling micro-economies become even less sustainable. So people pour into the capital because that’s where the jobs are.
More than two million people now work in Dhaka’s many garment factories. That industry is the engine of the Bangladeshi economy, producing 80% of its exports. But it can be a hard industry to break into if you’re a farmer coming from the countryside, so many unskilled people find work in the off-the books economy. There’s a reason why this is known as the rickshaw capital of the world. Cash gigs like vegetable salesman, barber, shopkeeper, boatman, and cycling cabbie make up nearly 4 out of 5 jobs here. Average pay for this full-time work is less than $100 a month.
Development is a tough nut to crack. In order to raise revenue to provide better services and solve problems like traffic congestion, the city needs to bring these people out of the shadow economy. That idea was examined in the Global Post’s excellent report on Dhaka from a few years ago:
[ErikGerman, Global Post] “Legitimizing this vast slum economy would mean compelling millions of vegetable sellers, shop owners, barbers to get licenses, pay taxes, and formalize working conditions. It’s a gargantuan task.”
Dhakka wasn’t always so low in the global economic pecking order. In its heyday, as the commercial capital of the Mughal empire in the 17th century, it was one of the wealthiest and most prosperous cities on the planet. The Venice of the East, known then as Jahangir Nagar, was a worldwide hub of the cotton and silk trade. Its palatial caravansary, the Bara Katra, sheltered merchants traveling along the Grand Trunk Road, one of the oldest and longest thoroughfares in Asia.
Then, Dhaka fell into two centuries of turmoil that saw its status decline. First, the British took control in 1765. When they were forced out in the middle of the twentieth century, the city became the capital of Eastern Pakistan. Bangladesh finally won its independence in 1971, but only after suffering heavy damage during many battles. One of the legacies of two and a half centuries of power struggle in this region is its confusing and hard to define borders. The India-Bangladesh boundary is one of the strangest in the world.
One look and it's obvious, Dhaka is taking in people from the entire region—Bangladeshi or not.
This great migration is overwhelming the city’s infrastructure and services, which simply can’t keep up. Still, there are some obvious things the country should be doing to help Dhaka better manage its growth.
[Solana Pyne, Global Post] “One deceptively simple suggestion: put control over vital services in the hands of a single municipal government accountable to the people it serves. As in many unplanned cities of it’s size, Dhaka’s police, utilities, and roadways are controlled by a dozen or more national authorities, mostly run by political appointees.”

Dhaka Metro rail construction work begins
The construction work of the 20-kilometre long metro rail began today.
The project is aimed to ease the perennial traffic congestion in Dhaka and provides an improved, faster, comfortable and environmentally-friendly means of public transportation. The estimated time to travel the 20km distance, from the north end of Uttara to Motijheel, is 35 minutes.
However, following the Gulshan attack, Japanese bidders and consultants restrained from traveling to Bangladesh, owing to security concerns, which resulted in the delays of the construction work.

Streets of Dhaka – Ep3 “Everything FARMGATE!”
Every city has a story to tell. Dhaka’s epic story is divided in numerous chapters, spread across its numerous streets. From food to culture to people – the streets are pages from Dhaka’s narrative. To listen to Dhaka’s tales, one simply needs to roam about in the streets! And that’s exactly what we are doing. ‘Streets of Dhaka’ is a video series. Through these streets, we will try to paint a portrait of our beloved city.
This week, we visit the heart of the city; Farmgate. We experience the non-stop rush and everything that is there to do in-between that rush.

The city's name was Jahangir Nagar (City of Jahangir) in the 17th century. It was the Mughal capital of Bengal for 75 years; and flourished in trade and culture as a cosmopolitan commercial capital and the hub of the worldwide muslin and silk trade. The city hosted two major caravansaries of the subcontinent: the Bara Katra and Choto Katra, located on the riverfront of the Buriganga. The Mughals decorated the city with well-laid out gardens, tombs, mosques, palaces and forts. Dhaka became known as the City of Mosques in Bengal. It was also described as the Venice of the East. The old city was home to various Eurasian merchant groups. At the height of its medieval glory, Dhaka was regarded as one of the wealthiest and most prosperous cities in the world. It was central to the economy of Mughal Bengal, which generated 50% of Mughal GDP.

Dhaka Metro rail construction work begins

Dhaka Metro rail construction work begins
The construction work of the 20-kilometre long metro rail began today.
The project is aimed to ease the perennial traffic congestion in Dhaka and provides an improved, faster, comfortable and environmentally-friendly means of public transportation. The estimated time to travel the 20km distance, from the north end of Uttara to Motijheel, is 35 minutes.
However, following the Gulshan attack, Japanese bidders and consultants restrained from traveling to Bangladesh, owing to security concerns, which resulted in the delays of the construction work.
To know more about the construction work progress watch StarLive’s video

Streets of Dhaka – Ep3 “Everything FARMGATE!”

Streets of Dhaka – Ep3 “Everything FARMGATE!”
Every city has a story to tell. Dhaka’s epic story is divided in numerous chapters, spread across its numerous streets. From food to culture to people – the streets are pages from Dhaka’s narrative. To listen to Dhaka’s tales, one simply needs to roam about in the streets! And that’s exactly what we are doing. ‘Streets of Dhaka’ is a video series. Through these streets, we will try to paint a portrait of our beloved city.
This week, we visit the heart of the city; Farmgate. We experience the non-stop rush and everything that is there to do in-between that rush.

Best burger of Dhaka

Let’s not be having any arguments about this: burgers are the one of the best fast foods out there. The arguments start when we bring about the topic of where to find the best. Some like skyscraper inspired burgers whereas others prefer the traditional with tons of modern add-ons. So who’s right and who’s wrong? Watch our resident experts Haider and Osama duke it out and settle the matter once and for all with the help from renowned foodie Kaniska Chakraborty. FIGHT!

Dhaka is the capital city of Bangladesh. With an estimated 15.5 million people living in greater Dhaka, it is also the tenth largest city in the world.
In December 2014, I spent several days in this city, and was at times overwhelmed by the sights and sounds of the place. Gladly, the people I met along the way were usually incredibly friendly and helpful.
In this video, there are shots of the Buriganga river that meanders through the city, clips from the streets, people at work, a shipyard, one of the busy bazaars, the Baital Mukarram mosque during Friday prayer, and Ramna Park where Dhaka's youth come to play cricket.

Everest and the Himalayas. It may not seem like this mountain range could shape a Megacity almost 600 kilometers away, but it does.
This place, the capital of the most densely populated major country in the world, is also the fastest growing city on the planet.
This is an examination of Dhaka, Bangladesh.
The constant supply of melting snow and water that flows down the Himalayas to the south creates the largest delta in the world.
Much of it runs through Bangladesh, an agricultural paradise with some of the richest soil on the planet.
But all that water is also a curse. With more than 700 rivers flowing into the Bay of Bengal, many of the country’s residents become displaced when monsoon season arrives in mid June every year. Annual rainfall in Bangladesh is over 78 inches, and two-thirds of the country’s 64 districts experience regular flooding.
Combine that with the highest population density of any major country, and you understand why Dhaka is adding more than 400,000 residents a year. If even a little of Bangladesh’s precious land is overtaken by water, many of its people instantly become homeless. To top that off, when fields and villages flood, these already struggling micro-economies become even less sustainable. So people pour into the capital because that’s where the jobs are.
More than two million people now work in Dhaka’s many garment factories. That industry is the engine of the Bangladeshi economy, producing 80% of its exports. But it can be a hard industry to break into if you’re a farmer coming from the countryside, so many unskilled people find work in the off-the books economy. There’s a reason why this is known as the rickshaw capital of the world. Cash gigs like vegetable salesman, barber, shopkeeper, boatman, and cycling cabbie make up nearly 4 out of 5 jobs here. Average pay for this full-time work is less than $100 a month.
Development is a tough nut to crack. In order to raise revenue to provide better services and solve problems like traffic congestion, the city needs to bring these people out of the shadow economy. That idea was examined in the Global Post’s excellent report on Dhaka from a few years ago:
[ErikGerman, Global Post] “Legitimizing this vast slum economy would mean compelling millions of vegetable sellers, shop owners, barbers to get licenses, pay taxes, and formalize working conditions. It’s a gargantuan task.”
Dhakka wasn’t always so low in the global economic pecking order. In its heyday, as the commercial capital of the Mughal empire in the 17th century, it was one of the wealthiest and most prosperous cities on the planet. The Venice of the East, known then as Jahangir Nagar, was a worldwide hub of the cotton and silk trade. Its palatial caravansary, the Bara Katra, sheltered merchants traveling along the Grand Trunk Road, one of the oldest and longest thoroughfares in Asia.
Then, Dhaka fell into two centuries of turmoil that saw its status decline. First, the British took control in 1765. When they were forced out in the middle of the twentieth century, the city became the capital of Eastern Pakistan. Bangladesh finally won its independence in 1971, but only after suffering heavy damage during many battles. One of the legacies of two and a half centuries of power struggle in this region is its confusing and hard to define borders. The India-Bangladesh boundary is one of the strangest in the world.
One look and it's obvious, Dhaka is taking in people from the entire region—Bangladeshi or not.
This great migration is overwhelming the city’s infrastructure and services, which simply can’t keep up. Still, there are some obvious things the country should be doing to help Dhaka better manage its growth.
[Solana Pyne, Global Post] “One deceptively simple suggestion: put control over vital services in the hands of a single municipal government accountable to the people it serves. As in many unplanned cities of it’s size, Dhaka’s police, utilities, and roadways are controlled by a dozen or more national authorities, mostly run by political appointees.”

What I Ate Traveling (Vegan) | Chiang Mai to Dhaka

Hi my little mangos, sorry about the lack of videos. The internet in Bangladesh was very 'dial up' like and I only just got good wifi now (on my last day here), so I thought I'd upload the first blog of my Bangladesh series now. So, saying goodbye to my dad after 10 awesome days, and saying hello to my lover, Bowen for another 10 days! I haven't seen him in 8 weeks or so, so it was pretty amazing seeing him again! Sorry if the end was a little quick, I didn't want to spend my first few moments with Bowen on my camera, and he was tired aswell. I hope you enjoy it and stay tuned for the next two vlogs coming in the next few days. Love and light, Mary xoxo
Thank you for watching! Xoxo

Dhaka Travel Guide

Old Dhaka (in Bengali, পুরান ঢাকা ) is a term used to refer to the historic old city of Dhaka, the capital of modern Bangladesh.
It was founded in 1608 as Jahangir Nagar, the capital of Mughal Bengal. It was one of the largest and most prosperous cities of South Asia and the center of the worldwide muslin trade.
The Nawab of Bengal shifted the capital from Dhaka to Murshidabad in the early-18th century.
With the rise of Calcutta (now Kolkata) during the British rule, Dhaka began to decline and came to be known as the "City of MagnificentRuins". The British however began to develop the modern city from the mid-19th century.
Old Dhaka is famous for its variety of foods and amicable living of all religion people together.
The main Muslims festival here is Eid-ul-Fitr, Eid-ul-Adha and Muhar...

My daily life in Dhaka city !

🇧🇩 Bangladesh's Biggest Brothel | 101 East

The biggest brothel in Bangladesh - and possibly the world.
The town of Daulatdia is home to 1,500 prostitutes, some as young as 10 years old.
In a ramshackle maze of dirty alleyways, women and girls work day and night in tiny cubicles, meeting the men who pour in from the nearby highway.
Many of the prostitutes have always lived there; some were sold into prostitution by their families, and others were abducted from their villages.
101 East goes inside this sprawling brothel to find out how women and their children survive when hope is in short supply.

Dhaka - Bangladesh

Dhaka is the capital city of Bangladesh. With an estimated 15.5 million people living in greater Dhaka, it is also the tenth largest city in the world.
In December 2014, I spent several days in this city, and was at times overwhelmed by the sights and sounds of the place. Gladly, the people I met along the way were usually incredibly friendly and helpful.
In this video, there are shots of the Buriganga river that meanders through the city, clips from the streets, people at work, a shipyard, one of the busy bazaars, the Baital Mukarram mosque during Friday prayer, and Ramna Park where Dhaka's youth come to play cricket.

Everest and the Himalayas. It may not seem like this mountain range could shape a Megacity almost 600 kilometers away, but it does.
This place, the capital of the most densely populated major country in the world, is also the fastest growing city on the planet.
This is an examination of Dhaka, Bangladesh.
The constant supply of melting snow and water that flows down the Himalayas to the south creates the largest delta in the world.
Much of it runs through Bangladesh, an agricultural paradise with some of the richest soil on the planet.
But all that water is also a curse. With more than 700 rivers flowing into the Bay of Bengal, many of the country’s residents become displaced when monsoon season arrives in mid June every year. Annual rainfall in Bangladesh is over 78 inches, and two-thirds of the country’s 64 districts experience regular flooding.
Combine that with the highest population density of any major country, and you understand why Dhaka is adding more than 400,000 residents a year. If even a little of Bangladesh’s precious land is overtaken by water, many of its people instantly become homeless. To top that off, when fields and villages flood, these already struggling micro-economies become even less sustainable. So people pour into the capital because that’s where the jobs are.
More than two million people now work in Dhaka’s many garment factories. That industry is the engine of the Bangladeshi economy, producing 80% of its exports. But it can be a hard industry to break into if you’re a farmer coming from the countryside, so many unskilled people find work in the off-the books economy. There’s a reason why this is known as the rickshaw capital of the world. Cash gigs like vegetable salesman, barber, shopkeeper, boatman, and cycling cabbie make up nearly 4 out of 5 jobs here. Average pay for this full-time work is less than $100 a month.
Development is a tough nut to crack. In order to raise revenue to provide better services and solve problems like traffic congestion, the city needs to bring these people out of the shadow economy. That idea was examined in the Global Post’s excellent report on Dhaka from a few years ago:
[ErikGerman, Global Post] “Legitimizing this vast slum economy would mean compelling millions of vegetable sellers, shop owners, barbers to get licenses, pay taxes, and formalize working conditions. It’s a gargantuan task.”
Dhakka wasn’t always so low in the global economic pecking order. In its heyday, as the commercial capital of the Mughal empire in the 17th century, it was one of the wealthiest and most prosperous cities on the planet. The Venice of the East, known then as Jahangir Nagar, was a worldwide hub of the cotton and silk trade. Its palatial caravansary, the Bara Katra, sheltered merchants traveling along the Grand Trunk Road, one of the oldest and longest thoroughfares in Asia.
Then, Dhaka fell into two centuries of turmoil that saw its status decline. First, the British took control in 1765. When they were forced out in the middle of the twentieth century, the city became the capital of Eastern Pakistan. Bangladesh finally won its independence in 1971, but only after suffering heavy damage during many battles. One of the legacies of two and a half centuries of power struggle in this region is its confusing and hard to define borders. The India-Bangladesh boundary is one of the strangest in the world.
One look and it's obvious, Dhaka is taking in people from the entire region—Bangladeshi or not.
This great migration is overwhelming the city’s infrastructure and services, which simply can’t keep up. Still, there are some obvious things the country should be doing to help Dhaka better manage its growth.
[Solana Pyne, Global Post] “One deceptively simple suggestion: put control over vital services in the hands of a single municipal government accountable to the people it serves. As in many unplanned cities of it’s size, Dhaka’s police, utilities, and roadways are controlled by a dozen or more national authorities, mostly run by political appointees.”

Dhaka Metro rail construction work begins

Dhaka Metro rail construction work begins
The construction work of the 20-kilometre long metro rail began today.
The project is aimed to ease the perennial traffic congestion in Dhaka and provides an improved, faster, comfortable and environmentally-friendly means of public transportation. The estimated time to travel the 20km distance, from the north end of Uttara to Motijheel, is 35 minutes.
However, following the Gulshan attack, Japanese bidders and consultants restrained from traveling to Bangladesh, owing to security concerns, which resulted in the delays of the construction work.

Metro Rail of Dhaka

Bangladesh begins construction of its first metro rail in Dhaka from June 26, 2016. The first part of the 20-km metro rail will begin operation from late 2019 and the next part from late 2020. It would take just 37 minutes for a commuter to reach Uttara from Motijheel once completed.

Streets of Dhaka – Ep3 “Everything FARMGATE!”

Streets of Dhaka – Ep3 “Everything FARMGATE!”
Every city has a story to tell. Dhaka’s epic story is divided in numerous chapters, spread across its numerous streets. From food to culture to people – the streets are pages from Dhaka’s narrative. To listen to Dhaka’s tales, one simply needs to roam about in the streets! And that’s exactly what we are doing. ‘Streets of Dhaka’ is a video series. Through these streets, we will try to paint a portrait of our beloved city.
This week, we visit the heart of the city; Farmgate. We experience the non-stop rush and everything that is there to do in-between that rush.

I'm in Dhaka in Bangladesh! It was the same price to fly here on the way back to Europe as it was to fly direct, so I decided to come here for a couple days to experience a little bit of the country. These are my first impressions!

That's why I am now running this video blog showing you how to travel the world continuously.

What I Ate Traveling (Vegan) | Chiang Mai to Dhaka

Hi my little mangos, sorry about the lack of videos. The internet in Bangladesh was very 'dial up' like and I only just got good wifi now (on my last day here), so I thought I'd upload the first blog of my Bangladesh series now. So, saying goodbye to my dad after 10 awesome days, and saying hello to my lover, Bowen for another 10 days! I haven't seen him in 8 weeks or so, so it was pretty amazing seeing him again! Sorry if the end was a little quick, I didn't want to spend my first few moments with Bowen on my camera, and he was tired aswell. I hope you enjoy it and stay tuned for the next two vlogs coming in the next few days. Love and light, Mary xoxo
Thank you for watching! Xoxo

My name is Mary and I created this channel to share with you my journey on how I overcame years of struggling with anxiety and an array of eating disorders through a high carb, low fat vegan lifestyle and nourished myself back to health - physically, mentally and spiritually. Here I hope to inspire, motivate and help people in any way I can so that you may all become the best versions of yourself.
